If you put on glasses that turn your vision upside down you'll adapt to it within a week, it will literally just start looking normal to you.

I think we can quite literally adapt to fucking anything if we just do it right.

i checked their post history and they reference being drunk while commenting previously, so i can only assume they went on one hell of a bender and fixated on dishwashers while struggling with some sort of trauma..

all this makes me think of is XKCD's "what if you used a laser to vaporize the rain around you?"

Not really, no. This is the same kind of silver-bullet thinking as self-driving cars, it may feel cool but in reality the best way to improve things are boring and have been known for centuries if not millennia.
Some things absolutely benefit from being underground, like railways in dense urban areas, but for most things it's just a ton of effort for not much benefit and introducing a bunch of problems (flooding is only going to become more common in the future).

What we should be doing is returning to everything being designed for the specific local environment, stop building everything identically all over the world.
Look at traditional construction and you'll find tons of small features that together make a HUGE difference, a prime example is how hot places had walled backyard gardens with a fountain in the middle, which basically turns the garden into a swamp cooler.
